Risk groups
Medical personnel and workers performing critical social functions should be given priority for coronary vaccinations. This is what the group of experts on ethics and priority setting established by Norwegian Institute of Health Public.

The current restrictions in Norway is our next article that I recommend.
FHI sent the first expert group report to the Ministry of Health. The report suggests which groups should be prioritized in the first phase of the COVID-19 immunization program. With this report, a group of experts communicated its advice to NIPH. Councils that will later take these recommendations into account in their assessments for the Ministry of Health.
The government decides.
The government will make the final decision on prioritizing vaccines. The final report, along with the NIPH vaccination recommendations, will be fed into the government's decision. It was important for the National Institute of Public Health to describe the values that we will use as the basis for our subsequent recommendations and to clearly define the goals of the vaccination program.
The conclusions of the expert group are therefore key guidelines for our final recommendations, says Geir Bukholm, head of the vaccination program at Folkehelseinstituttet. This should be the basis of your priorities.
In the report, the expert group writes that five values should form the basis for setting vaccination priorities: equality, prosperity, likeness, trust, equity. Vaccination has five goals, ranked here in order of importance. Namely, reduce the risk of death, reduce the risk of major diseases, maintain essential services and critical infrastructure, protect employment and the economy, re-open society.
summarizing
These values and goals led the group to recommend three categories as a basis for prioritization. These are risk factors for serious illness and death, infection situation, occupation.
